COOKIES, OTHER
SIMILAR AUTOMATED TECHNOLOGIES, AND ADVERTISING
When you interact with our online services,
or open emails we send you, we obtain certain information using automated
technologies, such as cookies, web server logs, web beacons, and other
technologies. A “cookie” is a text file
that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other internet-connected device
to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings
in the browser. A “web beacon,” also
known as an internet tag, pixel tag, or clear GIF, is a tiny graphic image that
may be used in our websites or emails.
We use these automated technologies to
collect your device information, internet activity information, and inferences
as described above. These technologies
help us to:
●
Remember your
information so you do not have to re-enter it;
●
Track and
understand how you use and interact with our online services and emails;
●
Tailor our
online services to your preferences;
●
Measure how
useful and effective our services and communications are to you; and
●
Otherwise
manage and enhance our products and services.
We set some of these automated technologies
ourselves, but others are set by third parties who deliver services on our
behalf. For example, we may use other
companies’ web analytics services (described in the “Third-Party Analytics Services”
section), which use automated technologies to help us evaluate how customers
use our websites. Some of these technologies may also be set by third parties that help us advertise our products and services to you as informed by your interests, based on information collected from your activity on the web, including but not limited to, browsing or purchasing products on or through our websites or on third party websites or your activity on mobile sites and applications. This advertising approach is called interest-based advertising or "targeted advertising." You thus may see certain ads on other websites because we use these third-party services to show Weebly ads that may be tailored to your individual interests.
Your browser can alert you when cookies are
placed on your device, and how you can stop or disable them via your browser
settings. Please note, however, that without cookies all of the features of our
online services may not work properly. If you use a mobile device, you can
manage how your device and browser share certain device data by changing the
privacy and security settings on your mobile device. You can learn more about cookies and how to
manage your preferences by visiting http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
THIRD-PARTY
ANALYTICS SERVICES
We may use third-party analytics service
providers to help us with our online services, such as Google Analytics, BugSnag, and Crashlytics. The
analytics providers that administer these services use technologies such as
cookies, web beacons, and web server logs to help us analyze how you use our
online services. We may disclose your site-use information (including IP
address) to these analytics providers, and other service providers who use the
information to help us figure out how you and others use our online services.
●

ONLINE TRACKING AND INTEREST-BASED
ADVERTISING
We and the service providers we use to
advertise to you may collect information about your activities on Square. We
use this information to advertise to you and to tailor our products and
services to your interests. You may see certain ads on other websites because
we use third-party services to advertise our services to you. We use these
services to target our ads to you and others based on your demographics,
interests and context. These third-party ad services track your online
activities over time and across multiple websites by collecting your
information through automated technologies, including third-party cookies, web
server logs and web beacons. The ad services use this information to show you
Weebly ads that may be tailored to your individual interests. The information
our ad services may collect on our behalf includes data about your visits to
websites that serve Weebly ads, such as the pages or ads you view and the
actions you take on those websites. This data collection takes place both on
our online services, and on third-party websites that serve our ads to you.
This process also helps us figure out if our ads to you are effective.
To learn about how to opt out of
interest-based advertising in the U.S., see below
Certain web browsers allow you to instruct
your browser to respond to Do Not Track (“DNT”) signals to website you visit,
informing those sites that you do not want your online activities to be
tracked. At this time, our websites are
not designed to respond to DNT signals or similar mechanisms from browsers.
6.
HOW
LONG WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION
We generally keep your information as
long as reasonably necessary to provide you the Services or to comply with
applicable law. However, even after you deactivate your account, we can retain
copies of information about you and any transactions or Services in which you
may have participated for a period of time that is consistent with applicable
law, applicable statute of limitations or as we believe is reasonably necessary
to comply with applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental
request, to detect or prevent fraud, to collect fees owed, to resolve disputes,
to address problems with our Services, to assist with investigations, to
enforce our General Terms or other
applicable agreements or policies, or to take any other actions consistent with
applicable law.

such as digital receipts and messages about your account or our ongoing

ONLINE
BEHAVIORAL OR INTEREST-BASED ADVERTISING
Third-Party
Online Behavioral or Interest-Based Advertising Services on Websites (including
Mobile Websites)
Some of the advertising platforms that we use
to collect information from or about you in order to provide more relevant
advertising to you on websites participate in the DAA Self-Regulatory Program
for Online Behavioral Advertising. This program offers a centralized location where
users can make choices about the use of their information for online behavioral
advertising. To make choices about the use of your information for online
behavioral advertising on websites, please visit the Digital Advertising Alliance Webchoices tool. If you opt out of online behavioral advertising using this method,
this opt-out will only apply to the specific browser or device from which you
opt out.
Some of the advertisers, advertising technology
companies, and service providers that perform advertising-related services for
us may be members of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI), a cooperative of
online marketing companies that offers a centralized tool for opting out of
interest-based advertising delivered to each of its member companies. If you
would like to opt out of the NAI’s members’ use of information from or about
you on websites, please visit the NAI’s opt-out of interest-based
advertising page. If you opt
out of interest-based advertising using this method, this opt-out will only
apply to the specific browser or device from which you opt out.
Third-Party
Online Behavioral or Interest-Based Advertising Services Within Mobile
Applications
Some of the advertising platforms that we use
to collect information from or about you in order to provide our advertising to
you within mobile applications participate in the DAA Self-Regulatory Program
for Online Behavioral Advertising. This program offers a mobile application
called the “AppChoices,” which provides a centralized
location where you can make choices about the use of your information for
online behavioral advertising within the mobile environment. The AppChoices application can be downloaded from your mobile
device at www.aboutads.info/appchoices or from your device’s app store. If you opt
out of online behavioral advertising using this method, this opt-out will only
apply to the specific browser or device from which you opt out.
On your mobile device, you may also go to
your device settings and select “Limit Ad Tracking” (for iOS devices), or “Opt out of Interest-Based Ads” (for Android devices), which
will allow you to limit our use of information collected from or about your
mobile device (such as precise location data) for the purposes of serving
online behavioral advertising to you.
